What ISO 19030 covers
ISO 19030 outlines general principles of, and defines both a default as well as alternative methods for, measurement of changes in hull and propeller performance. The standard defines sensor requirements, measurement procedures, including various filters and corrections, as well as how to calculate a set of four performance indicators for hull and propeller related maintenance, repair and retrofit activities (Ziarati et al, MariFuture, Development Papers, 2018-2019)
The standard is organized into three parts:
- ISO 19030-1 outlines general principles for how to measure changes in hull and propeller performance and defines the 4 performance indicators for hull and propeller maintenance, repair and retrofit activities.
- ISO 19030-2 defines the default method for measuring changes in hull and propeller performance. It also provides guidance on the expected accuracy of each performance indicator.
- ISO 19030-3 outlines alternatives to the default method. Some will result in lower overall accuracy but increase applicability of the standard. Others may result in same or higher overall accuracy but include elements which are not fully validated in commercial shipping (Ziarati et al, MariFuture, Development Papers, 2018-2019).
